Brazos Valley Cheese is dedicated to crafting all-natural, high quality, healthy cheese using raw milk, vegetable rennet, and no artificial flavors, preservatives or coloring. The milk comes from grass-fed cows that graze freely on three local Brazos River Valley Jersey/Brown Swiss dairies that do not use growth hormones or antibiotics. The high butterfat content of this milk makes rich, yellow, creamy cheeses. Every one of the cheeses is made with raw cow’s milk and all the hard cheeses are aged in underground cheese caves for at least two months. Theirsmoked cheeses get their flavor from being smoked over pecan shells in a restored 1860’s smokehouse.
Marc will explain the process that goes into handcrafting these exquisite cheeses as well as discussing using the cheeses in holiday menus. All of the Brazos Valley cheeses will be on sale after the tasting. For more information about this free tasting, or to place an order, please contact Teresa McGee at 972/387-9873 or [email protected].
